Dear all,

thanks for the great program!

However, this looks like a serious bug to me. After my upgrade from ubuntu

It works fine on xscreen0.

This is the error message I get when I start it on screen 1:


Hi,
If your version comes from the Ubuntu repositories, you may try the 
vanilla version downloaded from the web-site. For some reason I don't 
understand, Linux distributors fail to compile Open/LibreOffice suites 
that work equally well as the downloadable compliations.

I can run presentations on my ThinkPad with an additional VGA.


I have reinstalled all
LO components etc. What can I do?

I googled this keyring message but did not find anything.


A quick fix for many weird problems:

Find the profile folder with your settings. ToolsOptionsPaths 
indicates that profile, usually ~/.config/libreoffice or ~/.libreoffice/

Close the office.
Rename that directory.
Start again which creates a brand new profile from factory settings.
If that makes no difference, you can replace the new profile with your 
old one.

Andreas,

Thanks a lot, the install did the trick.
One short follow-up: The name of the executable seems to have changed:


desktop:~/Documents$ lowriter
The program 'lowriter' is currently not installed.  You can install it by
typing:
sudo apt-get install libreoffice-writer


What's it called now or how can I start lowriter from the terminal right
now?

Best,
Frank

Hi :)
Weird!  Same here.  I tried

libreoffice3.4

errr, basically typed in libre but instead of pressing enter pressed the tab 
key instead to help it give me an auto-complete selection.  You are probably on 
libreoffice3.5

Btw a little late but here is a guide on the User Profiles

You extracted a folder hierarchy from the downloaded archive.
Go to subdirectory DEBS and run
sudo dpkg -i *.deb

For desktop integration change to the subdirectory desktop (or similar)
sudo dpkg -i *.deb

  LibreOffice does not have a file called lowriter. It uses 
swriter. This is found in the installed folder for libreoffice in the 
program folder:
  If you installed libreoffice using the download from the LO web 
site the location is here:

/opt/libreoffice3.5/program/swriter
Note: I did not notice what version of libreoffice you have installed. I 
give you the location for LO 3.5.x. Replace the 3.5 with a 3.4 if it is 
LO 3.4.x.
 If libreoffice was installed by your operating system, the 
location for swriter is:

 /etc/libreoffice3.5/program/swriter
Entering the path for the file on the command line will open Writer.
